Resurrection

Happy Easter guys. I think this is my favorite holiday. Not the greeting card holiday, but the real meaning. I apologize in advance if you're wrong, but peeps are terrible! Nasty marshmallows aside, the truth of Easter is amazing! Even Christmas is just a set up for what Easter would be. Easter is the resurrection of humanity, the day that Jesus overcame death, the "firstborn among many". As we celebrate the holiday today I just want us to remember one thing: God wants us to be alive, to be okay , to be with Him now and always. It's a day for God to repair us and for us to be restored to our place with Him. If you haven't talked to Him for a long time (or never) make it today. If you're broken, let this be the day you ask God to heal you and really trust Him to.

These posts were written by my son, Josh. I'm reposting them here so he will gain a wider readership. They will not be in the order he wrote them, chronologically. I will randomly post them as I read through them. I think you'll find some inspiration here!

This link will take you to Josh's My Space blog where all of his blogs are posted. (In case it takes me a while to get them all copied here.)

About Me

I live in the northwoods of Minnesota on a small farm. My husband, Bob, went home to be with Jesus on November 19, 2013. God is leading me through this new part of my life. Our seven kids ranging in age from 23-52 are strewn around the country and I'm proud of all of them!
I love to read (especially English literature), write, draw and sing. My main goal in life is to become more like Jesus and make Him the center of my life. (I say goal because I haven't arrived yet!) My prayer is that my children will also live this out. Thanks for dropping by!
